Senior has no funny stories, thinks males try too hard to impress females, isn't a player

Ly: Kaibab-Huachuca front desk, Chun speaking. How can I help you?

Wildcat: Hi. I was just wondering if there was anyone I could talk to. I lost my favorite pair of Velcro shoes in California this weekend.

Ly: OK.

Wildcat: And I was wondering if there was anyone here who could cheer me up.

Ly: You lost them within the building I'm guessing ...

Wildcat: No. I lost them in California. I was just wondering if anyone could talk to me to cheer me up a little bit.

Ly: Oh, OK. Well, I'm sorry to hear that.

Wildcat: Would you be willing to spend a few minutes talking to me?

Ly: Yeah, sure. What's up?

Wildcat: I was just wondering ... you got any funny stories?

Ly: I don't know. You want to do the crosswords?

Wildcat: You know what? I'm really bad at crosswords. They make me feel worse 'cause they make me feel stupid.

Ly: I see. Who is this?

Wildcat: This is Nathan and you're on the spot.

Ly: Oh! "You're on the spot." OK. I see. My name is Chun.

Wildcat: John?

Ly: Chun.

Wildcat: Sean?

Ly: Chun. C-H-U-N.

Wildcat: OK. Do you have any reading materials in front of you?

Ly: Just the newspaper. Wildcat kind of stuff.

Wildcat: Why don't you read one sentence? Maybe we can make up a story about it. Find it in the sports section.

Ly: I have a quote here. "Every time we needed a big play from someone, we got it," said (Diana) Taurasi ...

Wildcat: Ah, "play." What's your opinion on "players"? Like male or female?

Ly: It doesn't bother me at all, whether women play basketball.

Wildcat: Oh, I meant like, players in the dating game. Are you still there?

Ly: Hello?

Wildcat: Hey, are you trying to get rid of me?

Ly: No. I didn't hang up.

Wildcat: Oh. (explains "player" question again)

Ly: I think it serves the purpose to show that one male is better than the other, and so they use it commonly. And so when someone says "I'm a player," they just want to look all cool.

Wildcat: Got you. Maybe that's in the crossword puzzle.
